Basset Hound Puppy Howling at the Moon

In the late afternoon shadow
The red sunset darkening the sky
The basset hound puppy.
.
Stirs and gets up
Hearing the distant sounds
Of the train in the distance.

Scenting bad craziness in the air
The dog begins to howl in the night.

Howling as the moon rises
Casting its lunatic light
On the mad scene.
